I know this is going to sound dumb but this really bugs me. When I copy a cell(s), the copied area is highlighted with "marching ants". Seems that after pasting, the "marching ants" around the source area should go away, but it doesn't. The only way I can get rid of the "marching ants" around the source is to click like a madwoman in a cell adjacent to the ants. Sometimes when I do that though, the clicking goes awry and I get stuck in a tangle that is very hard to explain, but the only way out is to close the workbook without saving and then re-open it. So my question is, what's the right way to get rid of the ants highlighting the source area after copying? (Excel 2002) RC Simple, just right click the cell with the dancing ants, select format, press okay in the pop-up window and it's done. |
